John 12: 47- 48 - The Judgment of the Last Days

Thoughts on Today’s Verse…

This verse tells us that instead of expressing words to do the work of judgment and purification in the last days, Jesus Christ was incarnated into the world to redeem mankind from sin, so that mankind could avoid being condemned and cursed by the law and enjoy God’s grace and blessings. Although we have been redeemed by Jesus Christ and forgiven of our sins, our sinful nature and satanic corrupt disposition are still deeply rooted in us. We are still bound by sin, so we frequently lie and deceive others and thus sin against Jesus Christ, and we often reveal arrogance, conceit, selfishness and despicableness, deceit and craftiness, and other corrupt satanic natures. We live in a cycle of sinning and confessing with no ways to extricate ourselves. As a result, we often cannot obey God’s words. So, Jesus Christ returns to express all the truths that save mankind in the last days, and do the work of judgment to purify our sinful nature and change our satanic disposition, so that we will be cleansed and saved, and fear God, obey God and love God, and be brought by God into His kingdom. From this, we can see that God’s expressing words to do the work of judgment in the last days is the most crucial work that allows mankind to be cleansed and saved.

God says, “Though Jesus did much work among man, He only completed the redemption of all mankind and became man’s sin offering, and did not rid man of all his corrupt disposition. Fully saving man from the influence of Satan not only required Jesus to take on the sins of man as the sin offering, but also required God to do greater work to completely rid man of his disposition, which has been corrupted by Satan. And so, after man was forgiven his sins, God has returned to flesh to lead man into the new age, and begun the work of chastisement and judgment, and this work has brought man into a higher realm. All those who submit under His dominion shall enjoy higher truth and receive greater blessings. They shall truly live in the light, and shall gain the truth, the way, and the life.
